The akwu Ojukwu is used for the preparation of fertility medicine for people who suffer from infertility. Also it’s used for diffusing a big boil in painful areas like around the armpits, groin junction etc. I saw my grandparents use it.
You are so correct because Nigerian doesn't pollution the environment in order to get palm oil or palm products. In Africa no one want to kill the palm tree just for cultivating the palm fruits, they will always harvest it for many years . This video is eye openers
If you like palm oil like me,please gather here for 'kpakpangolo' Nwanyi a you sabi book oh,your explanations at the beginning ehhh plus scientific terms used really got me. You have played your own good part in educating them on how to clean the machine up for next use.... By the way,which food production is 100% trusted??? Tankio for sharing...
Sister Flo we the Africans knows that palm oil is a good oil and it's healthy, but for me the problem is how it is been processed sometimes when I see it I don't want to eat palm oil anymore.recently my husband showed me something some one posted on Facebook, and if you see how they were processing these oil sister Flo believe me you won't want to eat palm oil anymore, a very big hole was dug in the ground it was dip and a lady was inside washing the palm nut and the level of the nut she was washing was up to her waist as in from her waist down was completely in marshed into the oil.After seeing this my hubby was telling me we should stop eating palm oil but not because it is bad but because of how it is been prepared but my love for palm oil is too much that even after seeing how it's been processed I just can't stop eating palm oil 😍 thanks for sharing I enjoyed watching, keep them coming 💖
There are more modern ways of producing palm oil, which some factories are utilizing. This is just the local way they have known for ages. With proper financing, they can get the right equipment for a cleaner production method.
lol So Nne are you saying that the lady nyunyelu nsi na aru into the palm oil? 🤣🤣🤣 But they boiled it to high temperatures afterwards, no? Use that as okwu nkasi obi and close your eyes and eat jare because I personally can't do without palm oil o. The one I am worried about is the concoction they sell to us in Spain as palm oil. Some of them already have black mould even while still in the shops. O di egwu! I have never seen oil go mouldy, only God knows what they mixed there and are selling to us.
@@FloChinyere I agree with you totally. In my country, there was a time when some people from the western world came and was lecturing that palm oil is very bad for the health. About a year later there was a huge shortage of palm oil because it was being massively exported to Europe. Now we know better. Palm oil is God's gift to Africa. Thank you Jesus.
This is a great video I hope others follow and educate the masses who believe the fallacies spread by those who have their own agendas. Thanks for sharing this SiStar!
*Apart from Football, this is the first video my husband is watching to the end! We loved and enjoyed how insightful you made this video! Keep telling our story Mama ❤️*
West African Palm Oil Plantation still far behind the Malaysia and Indonesian production technology in term of productivity and quality of oil product. Today this country are using modern oil mills to produce curde oil. And also having oil distilation to produced best grade oil. And event having food procesesing from palm oil base.
I am very impressed with your presentation. Nigerian palm oil production is very sustainable and the plant itself is indigenous to West Africa. It is part and parcel of our local cuisine and serves as a basic raw material for a lot of cottage industries. Local people should be the ones to educate the public and not some rampaging outsiders. Kudos to you once again.
motosana1 It is an undisputed fact that palm oil is native to West Africa. Please go to any scientific publication or internet search and the fact is clearly stated there. The scientific name is ELAEIS GUINEENSIS which implies that it originated from West Africa specifically the Gulf of Guinea. The region used to be the leading producers until the 1970’s when they were overtaken by Malaysia and later Indonesia. The palm oil seedlings that gave rise to the oil palm plantation boom in Malaysia was sourced in the early 1950’s from the West African Institute for Oil palm Research (Wifor) in Benin City Nigeria. It is now called the Nigerian Institute for Oil Palm research (Nifor) Every Ethnic group in the Gulf of Guinea from the Upper Guinea coast to the Lower Guinea coast has a name for this beautiful plant.
Well, like I always say, my ancestors used palm oil for cooking virtually everything that requires oil. It never caused any problem then, so I will continue using it. The rest of you that hates palm oil can continue with your canola, sunflower, safflower and a host of other GMO oils.
Exactly! Unfortunately I was born here in the United States, I have been disconnected from my true Birth Right. However, as the years go by I am connected to my people. I have always had a strong connection to those whose Blood runs through my veins.
@@enumamam7654 , they need to demonize palm oil first, so that they recommend the so called "healthy oils" to us. Unfortunately, a lot of people have bought the idea that it is unhealthy.
Lolo Aret : believe me its all about dirty politics Palm trees you plant it and it grows up to 25 yrs . On the other hand sunflower and so else every single year they have to replant ..so do the math
Love this footage of you explaining the health benefits of Red Palm oil, how the Palm fruit trees were cultivated and the oil from its fruits are processed. Those palm fruit trees are 100 percent organic. Good job Flo !
Thank you Mama Flo for this documentary. There is a lot of hard work that goes into palm oil production. And I also think it's a good business to invest in
Thanks for the education. Everything I’ve read about palm oil is contradictory. I bet if they cleaned the machine, the taste would change and people would complain.
Flo, My father owns a palm oil production plant in our village. If you’re ever in delta state around umutu area and you want to see palm oil production on an industrial scale, let me know. I’ll hook you up.
Good evening aunty Flo, I was in love with the Nigerian movies, but when I discovered your Chanel years later make my love for the Igbo land deeper.Nne dalu, Chineke gozi gie for us everyday😘😘😘😘
Flo, you are a real patriot for this! Oil palms are the heritage of West Africans and these trees really are something to be proud of. Oil Palms are so good for West Africa. They are such an important part of the culture - different types of food, drink, cooking oil from the fruit and from the nut, broomsticks, medicines, soap, cosmetics and baskets, fans etc. They are a gift from God. However, industrialists have given them a bad name by overplanting them in far Eastern countries like Malaysia and I think, Indonesia etc. etc. West Africans have always had a positive relationship with the oil palm. The relationship that they have is similar to the relationship that Pacific Islanders, who inhabit the islands of the Pacific ocean, have with the coconut palm tree. If people go to TH-cam and look at videos about the country called Fiji, people will understand better. The Fijian culture has developed alongside the coconut palm tree. In fact, Flo, I love the way that Fijians use the coconut tree culture to educate tourists. Please go and watch some Fijian videos on TH-cam. God bless you Flo, you are an angel.
Don't show your idiocy,African!! Malaysia didn't overplant palm oil. Unlike you,we have high standard. We conduct research prior planting. Even the soil's PH is tested. If don't know,don't comment
Kai!!! Sister Flo, this PR you just did for quality sustainable Nigerian Palmoil is even better than what any government can ever do. God bless you always for this.
The first time i heard that palm oil was not good oil i knew it was a lie ,i loved it when you said its time to start telling our own story and that is just what you have been doing on these Nigerian vlogs FLO, really nice to see how palm oil is made ,maybe there is another safer way to collect the fruits from the tree but then it will cost more ,well done for making another award winning vlog
Aunty Flo. This indeed is one of the biggest controversial subject. I remember wen I searched where to buy red palm oil since I'm in South Africa, I was shocked at the results that came up on Google. I really thank you for showing us proof that not everything we read on the Internet is true. Thank you so much. Much love❤
Thank you so much Flo. It's annoying to see how they bash palm ook here in Madrid but smoke cigarettes like the world is about to end. I'm about to prepare my life akwu biko!
Thanks for preserving our manufacturing processes our kids can refer to it for insight.

The process might look "unhygienic" but it really isn't. I am convinced that consuming a little bit of sand and dust here and there is actually not detrimental...i have no scientific proof..but we came from dirt and to dirt will will we rest!!
A little sand and dirt far far better than chemicals. NO CHEMICAL IN SIGHT DURING THIS ENTIRE PRODUCTION! Sustainable ✔️ #NoToFactoryFarming❌ Indeed family /small scale farmers are the key to food security worldwide Well done Flo for squashing this myth associated with the production of palm oil
And drying palm fruit like all organically grown foods is cram jammed with vitamin D. Food is our number one nourisher and medicine. Village life is the best. Always in touch with nature, the forest the water the fresh air and the beautiful scenery with home grown natural foods... To me too, that's real life 🥰 I share your love 💕 and pride of our beautiful Mother Nature ❣️ Africa you're beautiful L❣️L. You're a natural Presenter 😍
Another classic vlog from Flo. My only concern is that dust or sand could be introduced into the oil during production from the press into the oil well. I just wished the plant was a little cleaner. Thank you for teaching and sharing your knowledge. I think the way we produce palm oil is sustainable. I believe this process can be industrialized and can be perfected. I did enjoy the vlog. Thank you Flo.
Palm oil is home made too, If you want cleaner oil, boil the palm fruits, pound it in your clean mutter with clean pitsle in your yard and squeeze the oil in a clean container yourself!. That's how it is traditionally done in Imo state!!! This machine used here is far away from the traditional way of doing it!. Traditionally, the mashed pulp impregnated with oil is squeezed to bring out the red, clean virgin oil, then the fiber is washed out, the water and oil is cooked to bring out the remaining oil from the fiber. Fiber is dried in the sun and is used to fuel fire. Seeds are dried and cracked th o make palm kernel oil,used as cream, etc.The cover of the seeds are used to fuel fire also or fix local roads. Yes, if you want clean oil, cook it at home in your pot and squeeze it yourself. This tradition is passed down. What is shown here is not the traditional way of doing it. It is pounded traditionally, seeds picked out, fiber squeezed, oil extracted, fiber washed to bring out left over oil and the water cooked to remove the water. The best oil is the one you squeezed out initially! You will never buy oil in the market, if you know how it's made traditionally.
All your videos are very Educative/Educating rather! I’ve been following you right from the beginning, from when you were in Spain, your cooking recipes, all of your vlogs, your stories on how you got hired immediately after NYSC/during NYSC, all of these good stuffs, but your channel became more interesting when you moved to Igbo land.! I’ve been watching all your vlogs, starting from Lagos down to your own home town,, I’m from umuahia, umuahia is a capital of Abia state! I will be glad if you would be able to do some vlogging around abia state! I’ve been in Europe for over five years now, and it will be my pleasure to see my state, probably my community/village! I’m a growing TH-camr! Still working on my channel, I cook, not because I’m a chef, but Because I’ve got passion for cooking right from when I was home! Looking forward to hear from you! Thanks anyways for sharing! Regards
Fantastic, thanks for sharing, am heading home to plant 1000 nurseries of palm trees I nursed since last year, I promise to keep you posted on the development.
I think Akwu Ojukwu has more oil than the normal Akwu. I respect these Workers alot,they make a Crystal Clean, Red oil from these Nuts. Whether the place is clean or dirty, what matters is how Clean and Neat the Oil is... Good Job Flo, I enjoyed watching, I'm sending it immediately to my Elder Sisters to remind them of what they've forgotten 😂, Igbó Akwu ( seperating the Akwu from the Stem) and Itutu Akwu used to be thier hardest Job them 😃.
Ezinne's Kitchen Jekywilson No! The “AKWU OJUKWU” is more powerful than the normal AKWU! In my community in umuahia abia state! “AKWU OJUKWU” is considered as one of the powerful and best remedy to cure someone who has been poisoned, it is also known as one of the best remedy to chase away witches/wizards! “AKWU OJUKWU” does lots of good stuffs in Igbo land...
@@PablosHealthyKitchen Yeah, You're very right,It's highly Medicinal, but it Has more Oil than the normal Akwu, Akwu Ojukwu has small nuts and more Flesh, but the Normal Akwu has mostly big Nuts and small Flesh, that's the Reason Akwu Ojukwu produces more Oil than the normal Akwu.
Nne na so. I don't even believe that oil can be contaminated. But that's my own personal belief that I am keeping to myself hence why I did not say it in the video. For me, I prefer they do NOT wash the machines because that would be soap contamination and all that. Mmanu adi agba uka. 😂😂😂 They can change the machine parts after a few years but washing it with detergents and co? No. If they can power-wash it with only hot water, ok but I know that's not possible in a place like this.
@@FloChinyere Yes ooh Nnem, this has been like this for Ages and we've never heard of someone dying of Red oil Contamination, and most of these products are exported outside Nigeria, No Complaints! Like you said ** MMANU ADIRO AGBA UKA ** 😂😂, that's just the plain Truth. I only felt for the Workers who work all day in such HOT environment just to satisfy the Masses 💪 kudos to them biko!!!
Sis Flo, thanks for showing us the process I don’t know when this video was made because I am a new subscriber of channel but I enjoy seeing it. I felt robbed not being able to experience all the this as an Igboland daughter, the process seem daunting and long but the end result is wonderful. Thank you for always educating those of us who didn’t grow up in our beautiful Country Nigeria.
It is really time for us to tell our story, I hate it when you hear outsiders tell Africans we need to be vegan and we we need to stop eating palm oil , for God sake we don't do western diet , we don't do deforestation just to plant or rear one particular thing. 90% of our food don't contain any form of dairy the oil We use which is palm oil is very healthy if your really research it is better than most oils you use today. Abeg let me stop writing I get tired trying to explain this to non Nigerians. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO.
I feel you sis... I would even say we are even more vegan than some western countries...as an example, the yam meal Flo and her family had in this video is completely vegan and sustainably prepared. There's also roasted plantain and red oil sauce, beans prepared with red oil, banga rice prepared in Delta state, etc...the choice is there to add fish/meat which imo is healthier than the fish/meat here in the abroad.
@Flo: this Vlog is perhaps the most educational & informative you’ve made available & I’ve seen! ~ as usual you occasioned a Smile 😊 on my face, & you should be given an Award for disseminating Knowledge to folks like myself living in Las Vegas, USA 🇺🇸! ~ Flo Chinyere, i Applaud you, you’re a fantastic Cook, a cheery Comedian & a brilliant mind! No exaggeration here, my friend!👍🏽✅
It is a conspiracy to stop us from using our palm oil and use their own,olive oil and the others.I am from Gabon and we use palm oil for many things:cook, to massage babies,clean their tongues when they turn white due to the milk,massage nursing mums bodies .And the palm kernel we roast it ,and the oil from it is used for hair,skin irritations like rashes and the like.Thank you Sister Flo for this documentary,may THE ALMIGHTY GOD keep on blessing you and your family;May HE keeps on giving you strength to upload these videos for us.I pray all these in JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH POWERFUL NAME!Amen!
I'm not pro or anti anything, but I prefer local, (most) natural (i.e. non-processed; raw; GMO free), organic/bio, without chemicals, and fresh products, as a rule of thumb. Greetings from Holland
Thanks for educating us all Aunt Flo. I’ve never believed all that oyinbo propaganda. How will I stop eating palm oil that has been eaten by my ancestors for generations? Ko jo! I even like eating raw palm fruit 😆
This was one of my favourite work when I was in my papa house,because we have alot of palm trees though it require so much time and energy,but I will never allow any palm seed to waste, there is enough joy when you cook or eat with fresh oil special roasted yam,Aunty Flo thank you for the update kudos.
Flo, I remember watching this process as a small girl (45 years ago!), no machine was used. In fact a hollow tree trunk was used to pour the hot palm kernels into and it was feet and water that I witnessed with the squashing of the fruit. If you eat the fruit after it has been boiled, its delicious and then of course you have the nut. I loved it and I loved watching the process. Something I will always remember about the traditional way of making Palm Oil, what an education it was. 👍🏽 Thank you for sharing this, it took me back down memory lane🙏🏽💕
You've done noble with this video flo. You've further stimulated my interest in farming. My greatest challenge is land acquisition and prevention of pilfering. Thanks for this. I wanted to 'love' the video but alas! I could only 'like' it. When the developed nations was taking down natural habitats with different plant and animal species in order to industrialize the world, they didn't remember Orangutans. Now the developing countries are trying to go one better economically and all of a sudden Orangutans become endangered. With regards to the developed world, they do their best to frustrate any attempt at processing our raw materials in order to keep us dependent on imports for finished products. As for palm oil, I'll take more of it for its heart friendliness and VitA. One day the world will realise that returning to natural foods is one sure way of reducing cancers globally. Palm oil is it for me.
The way it's prosses in my village,palm oil is a super oil,I would like to know about the benefits and uses of ochukwu palm. thanks for sharing I the village series you are a super woman.🙌
Anty Flo I love how you repeatedly say your have you like this video have you have you 😊😍 Thanks for sharing This is what the men and women eat that keeps them so young and fresh in the village. Fresh produce We are blessed in Africa I tell you
I am so happy that you are showing how we produce palm oil in Naija! Natural and sustainable. I believe the palm tree plantations people are familiar with and objecting to are the ones in Indonesia and Malaysia. These countries are major exporters of palm oil products used in the cosmetics and food industries worldwide. They cause massive deforestation and destroy the nature habitat of wildlife such as the Orangutan hence the outcry. People need to know not all palm oil is produced in this way - thanks for educating us all
Beautiful video Sister Flo !!! Well done. Thank you for sharing this and debunking most of the errors out there. So no need to cook the oil after pressing right? How long can this product last before it expires? Can we be sure there is no residual oil in the shaft after pressing? Thank you
Hello introduce my name yusuf. I'm from Indonesia. Let me provide information about investment opportunities for oil palm plantations in Indonesia, such as on the island of Kalimantan, Sumatra and Riau islands. If you are interested in buying/investing or you have a buyer/investor for the acquisition/take over of an existing oil palm plantation company, I can help you find a valid company to take over. inshallah i can be trusted. for surveys or negotiations I will meet directly with the owner of the company. I will bridge all the process from start to finish. if interested you can contact me at number 082140449379 (Phone/whatsapp) So, I thank you for your attention.
Proud of you Chichi and those working on the background. God bless you all. Sincerely l prey the state gov to enhance and develop this area of productivity
There are other ways of doing it in my own town Awka which is more cleaner. My mother used to make the home made ones which is more cleaner...this is the first time i am seeing this type. I wish you could have force them to clean it up before getting it on camera.
@@FloChinyere Yeah, my mom used to squeeze it out by hand...we never bought palm oil from the market. Even in large scale production, i know some places in my area where where machines are used and they keep everything clean.... Flo don't forget that the purpose of this video was to clear out controversies surrounding the palm oil, and while doing that, another controversy was brought into play.
@@echetabuemeka4087 large scale production, yes. In big palm oil production factories, they have hot power-spray washers that wash down these machines at the end of each day. But truth be told, washing these village igwe akwu that they hardly make any money from is not feasible. To wash those machines, you will need a hot power-washer. Using a detergent is out of the question because it will contaminate the palm oil. That's why I was like "WHAT?" when you said I should have FORCED them to wash it before filming. Like I said in the video, the only remedy to getting this machine spanking new again is replacing it because they don't have a hot power washer there. In the meantime, I told them to from time to time boil water with those drums and pour on the machine. That's the most they can do really. At the end of the day, the black stains though they look bad are oil stains and not dirt.
Keep up the good work. Just a gentle correction. Palm kernel oil is no longer heated to extremely high temperature to get the clear oil for industrial use. It's actually cold pressed and filtered to get the clear oil. Even when you use the locally made machines the heating is very minimal.
This is lovely and fantastic video for somebody like me who is willing to know how palm oil is being processed. GOD bless you as you took time to share this video Flo. Its educative and exposed one to one of the best way to produce palm oil. Thanks so much 🙏. I appreciate it more than u can envisage. Best rgds
Thank you Flo, this has given me some encouragement. I want to go into palm oil production and was doing some research online and bumped into this video.
Palm trees are good things to behold the trees are used for so many things like building and the oil is very good thanks for the great information every thing in palm trees are good.
Hello Chi, I just want to say thank you and well done for all the lovely videos you put up about our igbo origin. I teach our children in the UK our igbo language and culture and I use some of your videos. Please keep it up. I showed them this video and they were amazed. Please can you make videos of how the different parts of a palm tree are used, like ekete, aziza/akpankpa, UTE, akpara for spreading things, firewood, roofs..... The list is endless. My mission is to expose children here to our beautiful land.
Well, considering it was the greed of the western world that created that problem in the first place. Funny thing is the growing of almond requires tons of water which is bad for the environment, but I don’t see these hypocrites protesting about it and threatening to take all almond products off the shelf, why? Because California produces most of the worlds almonds. If they are going to be mad about palm oil, they better be mad about almonds too. Bunch of hypocrites.
You don't pay attention when watching those videos. Has any of them ever told you how it is produced in West Africa? They lump us all together and an average westerner is against the oil that comes from the palm, period.
@@FloChinyere thank you for this educational video. I'm a Westerner and can confirm the hipocrisy. In the West (in general) people want to feel better about themselves by trying to "fix problems" where there are none. There are many serious issues in the world that we should be outraged about, but we don't get anywhere near them because we can feel better when boycotting some product. Thanks to people like you we can educate ourselves impartially. Been following you for a while now. thanks!
@@FloChinyere but the answer to that shouldn't be to lump everything as lies as well 😅. We can make the distinction without throwing the actual problems with Palm oil production out the window.
Oh, how I love this vlog. If you know how I keep telling people or locally processed palm oil is the BEST because we know the source. Most other vegetable oils are GMO, trans fat, the most unhealthy kind of oils. I can use palm oil to cook every and anything that needs oil and it has not made me fat or increased my cholesterol levels as generally believed or feared. My mum used udaki for her grandchildren when she does omugwo or shea butter as their body lotion and it removes all rashes and other skin allergies. Hope we continue to learn to embrace what we naturally produce. Chai this is the kind of oil I use to eat boiled yam or boiled sweet potatoe 😍😍😍
Again another great job, chai am hungry to eat palm kernel now,,. Well there is still need for improvement but that doesn't mean the process isn't healthy, biko nothing do the oil, the heat will kill any jam,,,,lol. I have seen white men using bare foot to mash grapes for wine or those that do traditional cheese processing, with lots of local materials, its all natural, nke anyi ama ndi iche,,
This is a beautiful video filled with amazing information about the way we produce palm oil in our country Nigeria. Flo your Nigeianness (if there's a word like that) is inspiring. God bless you always. Chukwu gozie gi 🥰💌
@Rashaenka I have absolutely no idea. But we have homemade and industrial and we have very heavy laws about sanitary production, so I believe it is both hahahahhaha
Wish I could like this video multiple times! Thanks once again for taking me down memory lane. As a kid, I enjoyed the special moments spent with my now late grandma producing palm oil. From picking the fruits in abo nkwu to using the first oil to eat some delicious roasted yam. She would say it’s payment for our hard work and none for the lazy ones that didn’t help out 🤣🤣🤣🤣 ......thanks a lot for this Aunty Flo and thanks for all your lovely videos! YES!!!! Palm oil is very very healthy and sustainable contrary to popular belief. At least the ones from my village anyways 😄😄😄 Another lovely video 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
Great video as a vegan this is what I always say to people. Animals are not hurt at all by the way you have a new Subscriber great channel love from USA ❤️
palm tree crop is the best & most nutritive crop in the world . Each production/ processing stage has a distinct bye product. We are blessed to have it in our SOIL. Any wrong notion should be ignored.
The akwu Ojukwu is used for the preparation of fertility medicine for people who suffer from infertility. Also it’s used for diffusing a big boil in painful areas like around the armpits, groin junction etc. I saw my grandparents use it.

Unfortunately my ancestors did not teach us how to make palm oil...but I truly loved this series hope u have more videos
Well done Chinyere for your village vlogs. You are awesome 👍🤛🏽👏🏽👏🏽❤️
Love this footage of you explaining the health benefits of Red Palm oil, how the Palm fruit trees were cultivated and the oil from its fruits are processed. Those palm fruit trees are 100 percent organic. Good job Flo !
Thank you Mama Flo for this documentary. There is a lot of hard work that goes into palm oil production. And I also think it's a good business to invest in
Thanks for the education. Everything I’ve read about palm oil is contradictory. I bet if they cleaned the machine, the taste would change and people would complain.
You are right, the taste will change unless they do hot water power washing which is not feasible here.
Good job Flo. Watching from outside Nigeria. Do more videos on Agriculture.
Ojukwu is a good poison killer very high in antioxidants
Flo, My father owns a palm oil production plant in our village. If you’re ever in delta state around umutu area and you want to see palm oil production on an industrial scale, let me know. I’ll hook you up.
I am a Nigerian vlogger and I would one day like to visit the production factory we can talk more about it if you are interested
Dat lagos Chic absolutely. Let me know and I’ll put things in motion
v Jay what’s your ig handle so we can talk better there
Dat lagos Chic I’m not a huge social media person. I don’t have Instagram. Hit me up on Facebook (Valentine Ojieh)
Sister...am from Abbi..
Thank you for the mini documentary and bringing us true commentary on palm oil! It's very expensive in the US where I live.
Good evening aunty Flo, I was in love with the Nigerian movies, but when I discovered your Chanel years later make my love for the Igbo land deeper.Nne dalu, Chineke gozi gie for us everyday😘😘😘😘
This is the best video yet aunt Flooo, thank you for sharing, it was worth watching.... 😘❤️♥️💋
Flo, you are a real patriot for this! Oil palms are the heritage of West Africans and these trees really are something to be proud of. Oil Palms are so good for West Africa. They are such an important part of the culture - different types of food, drink, cooking oil from the fruit and from the nut, broomsticks, medicines, soap, cosmetics and baskets, fans etc. They are a gift from God. However, industrialists have given them a bad name by overplanting them in far Eastern countries like Malaysia and I think, Indonesia etc. etc. West Africans have always had a positive relationship with the oil palm. The relationship that they have is similar to the relationship that Pacific Islanders, who inhabit the islands of the Pacific ocean, have with the coconut palm tree. If people go to TH-cam and look at videos about the country called Fiji, people will understand better. The Fijian culture has developed alongside the coconut palm tree. In fact, Flo, I love the way that Fijians use the coconut tree culture to educate tourists. Please go and watch some Fijian videos on TH-cam. God bless you Flo, you are an angel.
😍🤗
Don't show your idiocy,African!!
Malaysia didn't overplant palm oil.
Unlike you,we have high standard.
We conduct research prior planting.
Even the soil's PH is tested.
If don't know,don't comment
Thank you for clearing up a lot of false information about palm oil.
Kai!!! Sister Flo, this PR you just did for quality sustainable Nigerian Palmoil is even better than what any government can ever do. God bless you always for this.
The first time i heard that palm oil was not good oil i knew it was a lie ,i loved it when you said its time to start telling our own story and that is just what you have been doing on these Nigerian vlogs FLO, really nice to see how palm oil is made ,maybe there is another safer way to collect the fruits from the tree but then it will cost more ,well done for making another award winning vlog
Our palm trees are very tall and the only other way would be to use articulated boom lifts which is not feasible both in cost and accessibility.
Aunty Flo. This indeed is one of the biggest controversial subject. I remember wen I searched where to buy red palm oil since I'm in South Africa, I was shocked at the results that came up on Google. I really thank you for showing us proof that not everything we read on the Internet is true. Thank you so much. Much love❤
Hey hey. Did you eventually find a place to buy it?
Thanks Flo, continue to tell the Story. I also enjoyed the cave adventure.
This was so cool God I hope we protect all these things. Nigeria is so rich it’s mind blowing. Thanks for this video
Thank you once again for this wonderful Village Video and the Info about Palm oil. You deserved an Oscar
Weldone did for this wonderful video, taking me back home, bless you.
Thank you so much Flo. It's annoying to see how they bash palm ook here in Madrid but smoke cigarettes like the world is about to end. I'm about to prepare my life akwu biko!
Thanks for preserving our manufacturing processes our kids can refer to it for insight.
The process might look "unhygienic" but it really isn't. I am convinced that consuming a little bit of sand and dust here and there is actually not detrimental...i have no scientific proof..but we came from dirt and to dirt will will we rest!!
You are absolutely correct. Washing this especially with soap after each session will contaminate the palm oil.
A little sand and dirt far far better than chemicals. NO CHEMICAL IN SIGHT DURING THIS ENTIRE PRODUCTION!
Sustainable ✔️
#NoToFactoryFarming❌
Indeed family /small scale farmers are the key to food security worldwide
Well done Flo for squashing this myth associated with the production of palm oil
@@FloChinyere that place you see Like that is cleaner than a McDonald's kitchen. Moreover no bacteria can survive in palm oil.
I love this. Indeed we need to tell our own story. I'm my country Togo the palm oil production is very sustainable.
And drying palm fruit like all organically grown foods is cram jammed with vitamin D. Food is our number one nourisher and medicine. Village life is the best. Always in touch with nature, the forest the water the fresh air and the beautiful scenery with home grown natural foods... To me too, that's real life 🥰 I share your love 💕 and pride of our beautiful Mother Nature ❣️ Africa you're beautiful L❣️L. You're a natural Presenter 😍
Another classic vlog from Flo. My only concern is that dust or sand could be introduced into the oil during production from the press into the oil well. I just wished the plant was a little cleaner. Thank you for teaching and sharing your knowledge. I think the way we produce palm oil is sustainable. I believe this process can be industrialized and can be perfected. I did enjoy the vlog. Thank you Flo.
Palm oil is home made too,
If you want cleaner oil, boil the palm fruits, pound it in your clean mutter with clean pitsle in your yard and squeeze the oil in a clean container yourself!. That's how it is traditionally done in Imo state!!!
This machine used here is far away from the traditional way of doing it!.
Traditionally, the mashed pulp impregnated with oil is squeezed to bring out the red, clean virgin oil, then the fiber is washed out, the water and oil is cooked to bring out the remaining oil from the fiber. Fiber is dried in the sun and is used to fuel fire. Seeds are dried and cracked th o make palm kernel oil,used as cream, etc.The cover of the seeds are used to fuel fire also or fix local roads.
Yes, if you want clean oil, cook it at home in your pot and squeeze it yourself. This tradition is passed down.
What is shown here is not the traditional way of doing it. It is pounded traditionally, seeds picked out, fiber squeezed, oil extracted, fiber washed to bring out left over oil and the water cooked to remove the water.
The best oil is the one you squeezed out initially!
You will never buy oil in the market, if you know how it's made traditionally.
All your videos are very Educative/Educating rather! I’ve been following you right from the beginning, from when you were in Spain, your cooking recipes, all of your vlogs, your stories on how you got hired immediately after NYSC/during NYSC, all of these good stuffs, but your channel became more interesting when you moved to Igbo land.! I’ve been watching all your vlogs, starting from Lagos down to your own home town,, I’m from umuahia, umuahia is a capital of Abia state! I will be glad if you would be able to do some vlogging around abia state! I’ve been in Europe for over five years now, and it will be my pleasure to see my state, probably my community/village! I’m a growing TH-camr! Still working on my channel, I cook, not because I’m a chef, but Because I’ve got passion for cooking right from when I was home! Looking forward to hear from you! Thanks anyways for sharing! Regards
Fantastic, thanks for sharing, am heading home to plant 1000 nurseries of palm trees I nursed since last year, I promise to keep you posted on the development.
I think Akwu Ojukwu has more oil than the normal Akwu.
I respect these Workers alot,they make a Crystal Clean, Red oil from these Nuts. Whether the place is clean or dirty, what matters is how Clean and Neat the Oil is... Good Job Flo, I enjoyed watching, I'm sending it immediately to my Elder Sisters to remind them of what they've forgotten 😂, Igbó Akwu ( seperating the Akwu from the Stem) and Itutu Akwu used to be thier hardest Job them 😃.
Ezinne's Kitchen Jekywilson
No! The “AKWU OJUKWU” is more powerful than the normal AKWU! In my community in umuahia abia state! “AKWU OJUKWU” is considered as one of the powerful and best remedy to cure someone who has been poisoned, it is also known as one of the best remedy to chase away witches/wizards! “AKWU OJUKWU” does lots of good stuffs in Igbo land...
@@PablosHealthyKitchen Yeah, You're very right,It's highly Medicinal, but it Has more Oil than the normal Akwu, Akwu Ojukwu has small nuts and more Flesh, but the Normal Akwu has mostly big Nuts and small Flesh, that's the Reason Akwu Ojukwu produces more Oil than the normal Akwu.
Ezinne's Kitchen Jekywilson very correct
Nne na so. I don't even believe that oil can be contaminated. But that's my own personal belief that I am keeping to myself hence why I did not say it in the video. For me, I prefer they do NOT wash the machines because that would be soap contamination and all that. Mmanu adi agba uka. 😂😂😂
They can change the machine parts after a few years but washing it with detergents and co? No. If they can power-wash it with only hot water, ok but I know that's not possible in a place like this.
@@FloChinyere Yes ooh Nnem, this has been like this for Ages and we've never heard of someone dying of Red oil Contamination, and most of these products are exported outside Nigeria, No Complaints! Like you said ** MMANU ADIRO AGBA UKA ** 😂😂, that's just the plain Truth. I only felt for the Workers who work all day in such HOT environment just to satisfy the Masses 💪 kudos to them biko!!!
Sis Flo, thanks for showing us the process I don’t know when this video was made because I am a new subscriber of channel but I enjoy seeing it. I felt robbed not being able to experience all the this as an Igboland daughter, the process seem daunting and long but the end result is wonderful. Thank you for always educating those of us who didn’t grow up in our beautiful Country Nigeria.
It is really time for us to tell our story, I hate it when you hear outsiders tell Africans we need to be vegan and we we need to stop eating palm oil , for God sake we don't do western diet , we don't do deforestation just to plant or rear one particular thing. 90% of our food don't contain any form of dairy the oil We use which is palm oil is very healthy if your really research it is better than most oils you use today. Abeg let me stop writing I get tired trying to explain this to non Nigerians. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO.
I feel you sis... I would even say we are even more vegan than some western countries...as an example, the yam meal Flo and her family had in this video is completely vegan and sustainably prepared. There's also roasted plantain and red oil sauce, beans prepared with red oil, banga rice prepared in Delta state, etc...the choice is there to add fish/meat which imo is healthier than the fish/meat here in the abroad.
@@Deardeborah exactly ooo
A very good video Flo. Educational and enlightening. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Well done
@Flo: this Vlog is perhaps the most educational & informative you’ve made available & I’ve seen!
~ as usual you occasioned a Smile 😊 on my face, & you should be given an Award for disseminating Knowledge to folks like myself living in Las Vegas, USA 🇺🇸!
~ Flo Chinyere, i Applaud you, you’re a fantastic Cook, a cheery Comedian & a brilliant mind! No exaggeration here, my friend!👍🏽✅
It is a conspiracy to stop us from using our palm oil and use their own,olive oil and the others.I am from Gabon and we use palm oil for many things:cook, to massage babies,clean their tongues when they turn white due to the milk,massage nursing mums bodies .And the palm kernel we roast it ,and the oil from it is used for hair,skin irritations like rashes and the like.Thank you Sister Flo for this documentary,may THE ALMIGHTY GOD keep on blessing you and your family;May HE keeps on giving you strength to upload these videos for us.I pray all these in JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH POWERFUL NAME!Amen!
If they are not ignorant, they will know that those their oils will NEVER be an alternative to red palm oil.
Love from Nigeria... Anambra state... Looks so pure...
Watching with smiles coz you made me remember my village those days, dalu NNE.
I'm not pro or anti anything, but I prefer local, (most) natural (i.e. non-processed; raw; GMO free), organic/bio, without chemicals, and fresh products, as a rule of thumb.
Greetings from Holland
Thanks for educating us all Aunt Flo. I’ve never believed all that oyinbo propaganda. How will I stop eating palm oil that has been eaten by my ancestors for generations? Ko jo! I even like eating raw palm fruit 😆
good to clear up some misunderstandings 👍🏾🙏🏾👏🏾
This is a fantastic series of videos you have made - much respect to you
This was one of my favourite work when I was in my papa house,because we have alot of palm trees though it require so much time and energy,but I will never allow any palm seed to waste, there is enough joy when you cook or eat with fresh oil special roasted yam,Aunty Flo thank you for the update kudos.
So much joy indeed! Some people don't know what they are missing!
The smell will be wow!!!!!!! Good for yam
Pls how do I contact you
Thank you so much Flo Chinyere for this video, I really enjoy it. So interesting to know something about your country and how you are making palm oil.
Flo, I remember watching this process as a small girl (45 years ago!), no machine was used. In fact a hollow tree trunk was used to pour the hot palm kernels into and it was feet and water that I witnessed with the squashing of the fruit. If you eat the fruit after it has been boiled, its delicious and then of course you have the nut. I loved it and I loved watching the process. Something I will always remember about the traditional way of making Palm Oil, what an education it was. 👍🏽 Thank you for sharing this, it took me back down memory lane🙏🏽💕
I hope this video becomes viral.
Well done my sister. I need some more information as i like simplicity.
You've done noble with this video flo. You've further stimulated my interest in farming. My greatest challenge is land acquisition and prevention of pilfering. Thanks for this. I wanted to 'love' the video but alas! I could only 'like' it.
When the developed nations was taking down natural habitats with different plant and animal species in order to industrialize the world, they didn't remember Orangutans. Now the developing countries are trying to go one better economically and all of a sudden Orangutans become endangered.
With regards to the developed world, they do their best to frustrate any attempt at processing our raw materials in order to keep us dependent on imports for finished products.
As for palm oil, I'll take more of it for its heart friendliness and VitA. One day the world will realise that returning to natural foods is one sure way of reducing cancers globally. Palm oil is it for me.
I guess Flo is florence if am right;thx Chi i always enjoy yr videos atleast making us feel the village lifes well weldin Chinyere
I'm very happy you shared this! This is the exact information I was looking for. I wish I could taste a bit of your beautiful looking food.
Second to view, first to comment and like.ok let me continue watching 😍
The way it's prosses in my village,palm oil is a super oil,I would like to know about the benefits and uses of ochukwu palm. thanks for sharing I the village series you are a super woman.🙌
Ndi there's a very good comment here on the uses of akwu ojukwu.
Anty Flo I love how you repeatedly say your have you like this video have you have you 😊😍
Thanks for sharing
This is what the men and women eat that keeps them so young and fresh in the village. Fresh produce
We are blessed in Africa I tell you
I am so happy that you are showing how we produce palm oil in Naija! Natural and sustainable. I believe the palm tree plantations people are familiar with and objecting to are the ones in Indonesia and Malaysia. These countries are major exporters of palm oil products used in the cosmetics and food industries worldwide. They cause massive deforestation and destroy the nature habitat of wildlife such as the Orangutan hence the outcry. People need to know not all palm oil is produced in this way - thanks for educating us all
I am English and we are all told never buy palm oil because of the reasons given at the start.wow.thankyou x
Beautiful video Sister Flo !!! Well done. Thank you for sharing this and debunking most of the errors out there. So no need to cook the oil after pressing right? How long can this product last before it expires? Can we be sure there is no residual oil in the shaft after pressing? Thank you
Hello from USA. Thank you for sharing. I always wondered about palm oil.
Hello
introduce my name yusuf.
I'm from Indonesia.
Let me provide information about investment opportunities for oil palm plantations in Indonesia, such as on the island of Kalimantan, Sumatra and Riau islands.
If you are interested in buying/investing or you have a buyer/investor for the acquisition/take over of an existing oil palm plantation company, I can help you find a valid company to take over.
inshallah i can be trusted.
for surveys or negotiations I will meet directly with the owner of the company. I will bridge all the process from start to finish.
if interested you can contact me at number 082140449379 (Phone/whatsapp)
So, I thank you for your attention.
The Palm fruits look so beautiful. Thanks for sharing this educational story
Let me go enjoy my cat fish banga soup & starch :)
Thank you for showing us this beautiful documentary.
Proud of you Chichi and those working on the background. God bless you all. Sincerely l prey the state gov to enhance and develop this area of productivity
There are other ways of doing it in my own town Awka which is more cleaner. My mother used to make the home made ones which is more cleaner...this is the first time i am seeing this type. I wish you could have force them to clean it up before getting it on camera.
I agreed o. I am grinching
@@FloChinyere Yeah, my mom used to squeeze it out by hand...we never bought palm oil from the market. Even in large scale production, i know some places in my area where where machines are used and they keep everything clean.... Flo don't forget that the purpose of this video was to clear out controversies surrounding the palm oil, and while doing that, another controversy was brought into play.
@@echetabuemeka4087 large scale production, yes. In big palm oil production factories, they have hot power-spray washers that wash down these machines at the end of each day. But truth be told, washing these village igwe akwu that they hardly make any money from is not feasible. To wash those machines, you will need a hot power-washer. Using a detergent is out of the question because it will contaminate the palm oil. That's why I was like "WHAT?" when you said I should have FORCED them to wash it before filming. Like I said in the video, the only remedy to getting this machine spanking new again is replacing it because they don't have a hot power washer there.
In the meantime, I told them to from time to time boil water with those drums and pour on the machine. That's the most they can do really. At the end of the day, the black stains though they look bad are oil stains and not dirt.
This is awesome! Thanks so much, Flo! You're too much!!
Am a google map local guide,I took pictures where ever I go and upload them in google map/google earth,I love your channel keep it up.
My biology teacher set this video as part of online lessons and its really given me, a western student, another view on palm oil, thank you
Thank you so much for this education. I've always been baffled about the oyinbo peoples current trend of hating and preaching against palm oil.
Keep up the good work. Just a gentle correction. Palm kernel oil is no longer heated to extremely high temperature to get the clear oil for industrial use. It's actually cold pressed and filtered to get the clear oil. Even when you use the locally made machines the heating is very minimal.
Tell them o,they don't know.This is beautiful,well done Ma'am
Thank you for this information.
This is lovely and fantastic video for somebody like me who is willing to know how palm oil is being processed. GOD bless you as you took time to share this video Flo. Its educative and exposed one to one of the best way to produce palm oil. Thanks so much 🙏. I appreciate it more than u can envisage.
Best rgds
I think avirivu should be shaft, abi? Thanks for the upload.
Yes avurivu is shaft
Ebere I don't know ooo. Na only car shaft I sabi.
🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️
@@FloChinyere car shaft no be small, lol.
I didn't know anything about palm oil but now i have learned something. thanks sister
Thank you Flo, this has given me some encouragement. I want to go into palm oil production and was doing some research online and bumped into this video.
Akwu ojukwu neutralizes poison..this documentary is awesome.
Thanks for Information.. Plz make a video how to make onion oil at home.. Plzzz dear
Well done sis. God bless you for telling our story
Palm trees are good things to behold the trees are used for so many things like building and the oil is very good thanks for the great information every thing in palm trees are good.
Hello Chi, I just want to say thank you and well done for all the lovely videos you put up about our igbo origin. I teach our children in the UK our igbo language and culture and I use some of your videos. Please keep it up. I showed them this video and they were amazed.
Please can you make videos of how the different parts of a palm tree are used, like ekete, aziza/akpankpa, UTE, akpara for spreading things, firewood, roofs..... The list is endless. My mission is to expose children here to our beautiful land.
they are talking about South East Asia where they have this problem not west Africa
Well, considering it was the greed of the western world that created that problem in the first place. Funny thing is the growing of almond requires tons of water which is bad for the environment, but I don’t see these hypocrites protesting about it and threatening to take all almond products off the shelf, why? Because California produces most of the worlds almonds. If they are going to be mad about palm oil, they better be mad about almonds too. Bunch of hypocrites.
You don't pay attention when watching those videos. Has any of them ever told you how it is produced in West Africa? They lump us all together and an average westerner is against the oil that comes from the palm, period.
@@FloChinyere thank you for this educational video. I'm a Westerner and can confirm the hipocrisy. In the West (in general) people want to feel better about themselves by trying to "fix problems" where there are none. There are many serious issues in the world that we should be outraged about, but we don't get anywhere near them because we can feel better when boycotting some product. Thanks to people like you we can educate ourselves impartially. Been following you for a while now. thanks!
@@FloChinyere but the answer to that shouldn't be to lump everything as lies as well 😅.
We can make the distinction without throwing the actual problems with Palm oil production out the window.
You are doing very well ma. Am proud of you oh!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks Flo for another educational video.
Incredible! Thank you for this video! It answers so many questions!
Thank you! I feel like I was chested from this kind of knowledge. Please keep sharing.
Notification gang
Oh, how I love this vlog. If you know how I keep telling people or locally processed palm oil is the BEST because we know the source. Most other vegetable oils are GMO, trans fat, the most unhealthy kind of oils. I can use palm oil to cook every and anything that needs oil and it has not made me fat or increased my cholesterol levels as generally believed or feared. My mum used udaki for her grandchildren when she does omugwo or shea butter as their body lotion and it removes all rashes and other skin allergies. Hope we continue to learn to embrace what we naturally produce. Chai this is the kind of oil I use to eat boiled yam or boiled sweet potatoe 😍😍😍
Hi Flo. Malaysia has probably the largest oil palm plantation in the World and that is where forests and wild animals are being destroyed.
Again another great job, chai am hungry to eat palm kernel now,,. Well there is still need for improvement but that doesn't mean the process isn't healthy, biko nothing do the oil, the heat will kill any jam,,,,lol. I have seen white men using bare foot to mash grapes for wine or those that do traditional cheese processing, with lots of local materials, its all natural, nke anyi ama ndi iche,,
Tell them o, unhygenic warriors always trying to feel woke. They are always feeling shame over nothing.
This is a beautiful video filled with amazing information about the way we produce palm oil in our country Nigeria. Flo your Nigeianness (if there's a word like that) is inspiring. God bless you always. Chukwu gozie gi 🥰💌
Here in Brazil is called "azeite de dendê" and is used for culinary at the North states. Look for a dish called acarajé =)
@Rashaenka I have absolutely no idea. But we have homemade and industrial and we have very heavy laws about sanitary production, so I believe it is both hahahahhaha
Acaraje or akkra originally Nigerian and west african
@@diouranke Yes, from the Yoruba
Another great video showing the beauty of ala Igbo! Thanks again Flo!!! ❤️❤️❤️👍🏾
Wish I could like this video multiple times! Thanks once again for taking me down memory lane. As a kid, I enjoyed the special moments spent with my now late grandma producing palm oil. From picking the fruits in abo nkwu to using the first oil to eat some delicious roasted yam. She would say it’s payment for our hard work and none for the lazy ones that didn’t help out 🤣🤣🤣🤣 ......thanks a lot for this Aunty Flo and thanks for all your lovely videos!
YES!!!! Palm oil is very very healthy and sustainable contrary to popular belief. At least the ones from my village anyways 😄😄😄
Another lovely video 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
Exactly! At least the ones from our villages. No one talks about that. Thank you. :)
Great video as a vegan this is what I always say to people. Animals are not hurt at all by the way you have a new Subscriber great channel love from USA ❤️
palm tree crop is the best & most nutritive crop in the world . Each production/ processing stage has a distinct bye product. We are blessed to have it in our SOIL. Any wrong notion should be ignored.
